Blaise Metreweli has made history as the first female leader of MI6, yet revelations about her grandfather, Constantine Dobrowolski—a Nazi spy who engaged in horrific crimes—cast a shadow over her ancestry. Documents indicate that Dobrowolski, an alleged 'butcher', participated in massacres and atrocities during WWII. Despite never knowing him, Metreweli's complex heritage is described by officials as contributing to her dedication to addressing modern threats as MI6's chief. The article highlights the challenges of reconciling her leadership role with this dark aspect of her family history.
Blaise Metreweli neither knew nor met her paternal grandfather. Blaise's ancestry is characterised by conflict and division, and it is precisely this complex heritage which has contributed to her commitment to prevent conflict.
The documents detailing her grandfather's activities reveal a troubling history of involvement in Nazi atrocities, including looting of Holocaust victims and participating in a massacre in Kyiv.
